The original nvme subsystem design didn't have a CONNECTING state; the
state machine allowed transitions from RESETTING to LIVE directly.
With the introduction of nvme fabrics the CONNECTING state was
introduce. Over time the nvme-pci started to use the CONNECTING state as
well.
Eventually, a bug fix for the nvme-fc started to depend that the only
valid transition to LIVE was from CONNECTING. Though this change didn't
update the firmware update handler which was still depending on
RESETTING to LIVE transition.
The simplest way to address it for the time being is to switch into
CONNECTING state before going to LIVE state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
